The South Korean disaster response team dispatched to quake-stricken Türkiye rescued two more survivors on Saturday.

The Foreign Ministry said that the team rescued a 17-year-old man and a 51-year-old woman from the same building in Antakya at 7:18 p.m. and 8:18 p.m. on Saturday, respectively.

The ministry said the teenager was unconscious while the woman was in good condition.

This is in addition to the rescue of a 65-year-old woman on Saturday.

The team has so far rescued eight people since it started its mission last Thursday.

The South Korean team will continue a high-intensity search and rescue operation in regions where potential survivors may be found, the ministry said on Saturday.
